Mamelodi Sundowns coach Miguel Cardoso has questioned the lack of acknowledgement of midfield maestro Marcelo Allende in South Africa.
Mamelodi Sundowns coach Miguel Cardoso believes Marcelo Allende remains an underrated figure in South African football despite the midfielder’s consistent performances and growing collection of individual accolades.
Allende was named Player of the Match for the second consecutive game after playing a key role in Sundowns’ 3-2 victory over Golden Arrows on Sunday, a result that secured their place in the MTN8 final.
The latest recognition prompted Cardoso to question why the Chilean has received so little individual recognition during his time in South Africa.
Allende has established himself as an important part of the Sundowns midfield since joining the club, but has been nominated for the PSL Midfielder of the Season award only once.
